Girls are better than Boys!!! What do you think?
Okay alot of photographers would work with a female model before a male. TRUE Girls can do any wacky expression and they will still be beautiful. NOT SURE Girls are better than boys. FALSE Whats your opinion on girls and boy models their techniques, expressions, emotions, bodies! Whos better? What makes one better than the other.... and if one isn't better than the other. What do males do better than females??? What can females do that males can't.... Keep it within the modeling subject... We already know about males having haha's and females having hoho's...... Sep 24 06 05:30 pm Link Depends on what Iâm selling. Note: I donât call models âgirls or boysâ Sep 24 06 05:38 pm Link Craig Thomson wrote: Thats cool...but gender plays a part.... Really what would you prefer to work with if you had to choose, and what your selling dosn't really focus on a particular gender.. Sep 24 06 05:43 pm Link Men dont care as much about our appearance. Women and Men has a need for female models. Men will always like to look at women and women will also need to see how she will look in those pants if she just keeps going the gym. Personally, I dont need my clothes modeled because I just find a cute sales girls and tell her to dress me. After all, when I buy clothes her opinion matters more than mine does. Its not that Ketchup is better than Gaucamoli... Its just that Ketchup goes with everything Sep 24 06 05:45 pm Link Girls are more marketable not better. Men have the most money and like looking at beautiful women. Even a lot of women like looking at images of women. More money in photographing women and that is why. There is a small niche market for men and if you can exploit that than good for you. Women buy products too and can be persuaded to spend money by looking at pictures of attractive men. Learn to cater to them and you can make a little cash. Sep 24 06 05:47 pm Link Men are easier/more fun to shoot because they don't need as much styling. It takes 2 minutes to completely change a male model's look whereas with a female model you have to redo the hair, the makeup, everything. With a guy you just throw on a new shirt and maybe new pants and point the camera in the opposite direction and you have a totally new shot. Sep 24 06 05:51 pm Link Working with boys is a little different than working with girls. Sep 24 06 05:53 pm Link I wish I had a hoho right about now.

Sep 24 06 06:41 pm Link e-string wrote: I'm cooking now, ya should have worn the hat Sep 24 06 06:43 pm Link I always call models "girls" and "boys." That's standard usage and traditional. That said, in modeling as in life, girls are in fact better than boys. It took me a long time to learn that, but girls are smarter, more resilient, better adapted to life in general. -Don Sep 24 06 06:45 pm Link Marko Cecic-Karuzic wrote: briefly list of a few goods and bads... sames and differences... Sep 24 06 06:46 pm Link Well, for starters, I rarely have to worry about a stylist or make-up artist giving the boy I'm shooting a complex.

The portrayals of sexy or powerful or intelligent or anger or sadness or vulnerability vary greatly between the sexes. Not a better/worse issue. Just different.

Once they are not gay and they know you're not, half of the photographer's problems is solved. I have found with the few men I have shot, that they are infinitely more confident than women, follow instructions better, and are by far easier to collaborate with. It seems that because of the stigma attached to male photographers (whether deserved or not) women think that male photographers will always try to hit on them.

When shooting boys, the first rule is, "do no harm." What this means is generally men do not want to look feminine in their pictures. This limits the types of poses we can do together. But girls can do just about anything and come off looking great. Sep 24 06 09:23 pm Link I remember this trick someone did at a party once. I can't quite remember how it worked but he had both girls and guys lean against a wall over a chair with their head touching the wall. The girls had no problem lifting the chair and standing strait up. Non of the guys could do it. This proved that girls were much better than boys at lifting chairs from awkward positions. Sep 24 06 09:33 pm Link In my opinion (and I'm making sure that I say this because of the hell that could follow) there is no thing, nothing, nada thing, not a thing, in this e-n-t-i-r-e world better than the female. Taking the physical out of it, female in many case returns or may involve mother. Mother in all cases returns to nature. Nature in all things returns to mother nature. Mother nature's work unless you've been struck by hurricane, is always beautiful. So naturally, mother nature prevails and male aren't mothers. Just my opinion though. ;} James Sep 24 06 09:40 pm Link Stephen Melvin wrote: Lots of photographers say the same things you did..... But shouldn't you be doing a masculine pose for a guy it should be the exact same as for a women which is being feminine...you should have just as much flexibility for men in pose mascline as women posing feminine.... we are two different types of the human race..... Women can pose in a mascline manner and still look good because we can still see a feminine side to them because they are female...if a male would pose feminine than of corse he would be gay...... Women are more easier in general.... men have to work harder to keep a mascline side to their poses.... Its not really flexibility its what you said just the simple mascline and feminine side to poses and techniques....

Sep 25 06 02:13 pm Link I wouldn't care to do a "guy" shoot I mean as long as I'm not sitting on anyones lap I'm cool.... I mean a shoot advertising beer and its a guys night out yeah I'll do the shoot..... I mean really dude be more open minded....I'm sure you can do a photoshoot with a dude without it turning into a homo club rave..... women have the "open" ability I think they have a care freestyle sure they care about how they are going to look but when it comes to poses they would care less.... men second their actions.... men shouldn't really have that problem...your modeling give me a break Sep 25 06 02:26 pm Link this may be a little off topic... someone asked me a similar question this weekend. i paint portraits, but stuff that i do for fun is always women; sexy women, with little-to-no clothes on. the only time i have painted men was for some wedding and couples pieces. anyways, this may sound silly, but women just look better. i'm not attracted to women in any way, but they are so much more beautiful than even the best looking man. why, though? not really sure. curves are fun, i guess.

Sep 25 06 03:19 pm Link More people like to look at women then men. Just see all the magazines devoted to pictures of hot women. Plus, beauty pageants and all the hot women who work at restaurants like Hooters and bars. Sep 26 06 12:50 am Link |
